Dementia doesn't begin with forgetting.
It begins quietly?years before anyone notices.
For eleven years, Joshua Pettit walked beside his mother, Betty, as Alzheimer's disease slowly reshaped her world. From the earliest subtle changes to the final stages of profound loss, he witnessed every shift, every heartbreak, and every unexpected moment of connection.
In The 7 Stages of Alzheimer's Disease: Walking Betty Home, Joshua offers something rare?a clear, compassionate guide to understanding Alzheimer's, paired with the lived experience of caring for someone you love.
This is more than a clinical overview. It's a roadmap for families navigating the reality of dementia.
Inside, you'll discover:
- A simple, easy-to-understand breakdown of all seven stages of Alzheimer's
- What to expect as the disease progresses
- Practical caregiving insights drawn from real-life experience
- Emotional guidance for coping with the challenges of memory loss
- Reassurance that you are not alone in this journey
Whether you're a caregiver, family member, or simply trying to understand what a loved one is going through, this book provides clarity, comfort, and perspective when you need it most.
Because dementia may change memory... but it does not erase love.
